Weird craigslist emails So i've been getting weird emails from ppl everytime i post on craigslist. Like the other day I posted something for sale and i got an email saying your post is great..but you can make even more money with just a few tips click here: and when i posted looking for an apt. i'll get emails saying to click here to get my credit score checked. I know those are scams and i just delete them. But what about those other emails? Are they trying to give me a virus by getting me to click? Can that happen? It's really weird..i get a ton of them! |
Yes you can get a virus never open anything you don't know who it came from always read what's under subject unless it pretaines to your posted add don't open it you can very easily get a Trojan virus that can mess up you whole computer |
You can really create problems if you click on that stuff. Resist and never, ever do that. Trojans, keyloggers that log every keystroke you make (passwords included) and sends your personal info to a 3rd party to use or sell, so much bad stuff is going on on the internet. Just don't do it. |
ok thanks! I've gotten about 5 of them so far, always telling me to click somewhere and i never have. If they are not responding to my ad then i just delete them. But i was just wondering about that, its ridiculous really, what they are capable of. They make me so mad but w.e. lol i will just avoid them. |
Oh my gosh I get stupid CL emails all the time! I always post on CL, and then within a day I get emails about online jobs, saying "You don't need to do this! You don't need to sell your belongings to put food on the table" LOL. I wish there was a way they could stop all the scammers and spammers there. |
